I *think* I like this one more(?)
Feels a bit like more of a "guitarists" version? I was much more aware of "hey cool guitar" than one the other one.
I think it's one where you can do unlimited versions, and they're all as good as each as other and you won't be able to decide! LOL
I am currently working on a Concept album with a good friend of mine and great musician/ guitarist Chuck D. Although this track does not feature Chuck , it was developed based on the chord progression he came up with which opens the song up. We…

I threw this one together tonite/early am...yawnnnnn. Not an exact replica but always a tribute to Jimi's music. I was originally turned on to do this by some new free vst effects I found on the net. A cool fuzz face vst that is very realistic…
Having more fun with Hendrix. I tried to stay true to the original as far as using no overdubs. Just one guitar, bass, drum and vocal track. Kind of used a mix approach and used a bit from the record and a bit from his live performance in Winterland…
My first thought, honestly, was, oh boy, someone's messing with Jimi again . . . then I pressed play. This one is done with reverence, my friends. Excellent cover. Dig.

Finally, finished this one. Its been a battle finding time and fending off a few bouts with allergies and colds etc...A very windy winter and early spring season in the desert was one of the worst in many years. Hoping to get to working on some…

Such clean acoustic guitar sound. Like the way it grows/builds...how the sound of the voice fills out. Cool voice and song. Starts to sound like the Beatles at the end.

billy boy where did you go
sittin in a pile of snow
come on down its gettin cold
for the time is getting old
well we made our way to the old wigwam
frozen lake and wind was calm
standing bow did strike a deer
to feed the tribe…
I can't say just what it is I like about this but I do like it. Sophisticated yet primitive, world music sounds... I don't remember hearing anything quite like it.
Reg crawled out of his bunker and wandered down the hill where Jip 1965 found him and dragged him round to FDR,s cave,the beer flowed,the whiskey jug was emptied and we all turned into AC/DC. And then we went down the Rum Runner and rocked the…
Another one of my lil ditties that I started writing at the bowling alley. First game I bowled a 204 the rest of the evenin the games were less exciting. Get me high, then strike a blow
I wrote this after I sang with a friend
at his mother's funeral.
He had always wondered
why he looked nothing like his brothers...
DOOR MAT
Key - A
A) My daddy treated Mama like a door mat
D) Me and little brother didn't like that…
I wrote this thing in 1994. When I played it to some friends back then they went "yeah, but where's the rest of it?"
I've been struggling with that concept ever since. Then, a while ago, a couple of kindly souls removed that worry from me…
Another one jip1965 sent to me for playing with!
Silent and magical
Calming and practical
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Filtering through the air
Twinkling in our hair
Moonbeams, silver moonbeams
Dancing on the leaves of trees
Shaking…
This is a bonus track of sorts for the mock EP It takes a village. I had the verse chord chages around for many years but just until last week the song and lyrics came together really quickly. I thought I heard a band arrangement originally but…
FYI, there is a glitch in the number of listens on this track. The other day 70+ listens popped up from in one day from another alonetoner. Has this happened to anyone else? Strange.
As I reflected on the 100th anniversary this past year of the ship's sinking, this song brought me back to the piano and this was the rendition that was produced as I thought of that fateful night. Original music by James Horner and lyrics by…
Ok - a collab between myself, Lady Jane and FDR. I hope the MP3 does it justice. Nice one you guys.
I put the basics together, FDR did lead and suggested the theme on "gliding", and LJ created the words, sang, added some effects (chimes, woodblock…
Standard tuning, very cool approach than. I thought some of it sounded standard and a couple parts had me wondering. Nice work. The vocals remind me of a version Zappa did of Purple Haze. I have been on the fence like Mac has been about doin a tribute. I say do it. NIce job kavin.
Reg has started to face some facts while at rehab.....

Powerful You have some great sounding guitar licks here.
Digg'n the guitar fx.

Oh yeah, this is a goodie. Love the sound. And that guitar playing with the old whammy - very tasty.
Wow the high register guitar tone is distinctive and super expressive. the back beat chord strokes are too cool. Faved
Instant fave! Absolutely gorgeous! A must share on our FB page! w;-)
Another good'n. Has some very beautiful and unusual chord changes in there. Takes me to some faraway windswept island.
very pretty and uplifting, hadn't heard this one yet.
Ya had me with the first lick. Nice. I love this song and this is a great cover of it. :)

Nice. :). Do I hear a KORG in there? T-series or M-series maybe?
*click* instant fave! Love the groove! w;-)
Nice voice AND MELODY.

Really nice! Keep on!
Awesome.
Big Sound I hope we get a chance to hear the whole album.
Sounds great,nice one!
There's nothing better than getting your voice back! Great track :)

Wow never heard this Shania tune! Nice work!
Ahhh....love it love it love it. One of my faves. Perfect rendition.
Balls to the wall. Turn it to 11!
You could sing about Corn flakes and we would all still be in awe. Thanks for sharing.
I dont know where to begin. Special stuff , my lord.
So damn soulful.
Haaa! Great job. Very cool vocals. Taking me back to Loggins and Messina era.
Pheww, your vocals are killer. That is a great 2 minutes.
Love it. What a vocal on this. You always connect the listener with the song. Another beauty added to the catalog.
This could crush thru brickwalls and tear steel I - beams. Nice finger grease!
Oooh....nice vocals , love the bridge section changes.
Okay, after a few tweaks, spaceship sounds, fuzz guitar and a better drum track I am happy now.
FYI, there is a glitch in the number of listens on this track. The other day 70+ listens popped up from in one day from another alonetoner. Has this happened to anyone else? Strange.
Beautiful music and playing.
Flowin nicely ....hell yeah.
Reminds me of Simon n Garfukel. Then its starts rockin.
Good right from the start. Nice wash of synths in there. Very nice vocal as well.

Great writing and lyrics.
